Little Bay

Little Bay in Montserrat distinguishes itself from other Caribbean cruise ports with an intoxicating blend of pristine volcanic scenery, intimate access to unspoiled nature, and a guest experience that respects the island's resilience. As ships anchor in the crescent harbor, guests are greeted by emerald cliffs, black-sand coves, and views of the enduring Soufriere Hills, offering a signature experience of guided volcano-and-heritage excursions that blend science, history, and local storytelling. Signature experiences include small-group hikes to lookout points above the crater, snorkeling along reefs that cradle vibrant parrotfish and coral, and cultural visits to nearby villages where Montserrat coffee, pastry, and rum tastings showcase the island's warm hospitality. Destinations emphasize on-island treasures: Plymouth's ghost-town ruins and the lush Belmont and Orchards trails, secluded beaches, and morning farmers markets where travelers meet artisans and musicians. Onboard-friendly fleet features at Little Bay include a purpose-built pier network and efficient tender operations that expedite disembarkation, a modern passenger terminal with shaded lounges, air-conditioned rest areas, and bilingual guest-relations staff guiding passengers to excursions or back to the ship. The port also highlights sustainable choices, from energy-efficient lighting and recycling stations to a small on-site fleet of electric shuttle buses that transport guests between the ship and heritage sites while minimizing shore-side emissions. In short, Little Bay offers a port-of-call that feels expansive and adventurous yet intimate and authentic, with an emphasis on meaningful encounters, curated destinations, smart maritime infrastructure, and service that makes every step of the day effortless for crew and guests alike.
